Switching Things Up

I switched out my Electroswitch rotary switches on the VCF with some Alpha ones. They have a much nicer feel & response (at least to me).

Since they don't have a way to set the max number of positions, I wired one up for band-pass, the 6 to the left as low-pass, and the 6 to the right as high-pass. (The final position at the bottom I left disconnected.) I also used liquid electrical tape since heat-shrink wouldn't work so great for this. Didn't turn out super pretty, but it does the job (and the heat-shrink is pretty much overkill, but I am doing it anyways!).

Oh, and here's a bit of a preview of the Triple EG!

This was a total beast to build! It is a dense and heavy module! Can't wait to test it (I was missing some MTA connectors for power, but they should be here Wednesday.)
